Oh really?? Didn't know that lol. The on line pictures show the 129 RTX with two idler wheels on each side..but they are very close together(right next to each other), where as in the above picture of the RTX, the two idlers are slightly separated?
I wonder why they aren't right next to each other like the YAMAHA website showed back in the spring?? Not a big deal obviously, just curious that's all??

the website pics are all wrong. I found this all out last season, same stock pics for 18 skids too...lol
I found this out when I saw my first RTX ever, on trail last winter....asked if he changed wheels ect, nope.
Then the more pics I could find I saw wheels all like this, spread out.
Same 17/18. Just noone here ever posted RTX pics that I ever saw, all 137 lovers here.
web pic wrong(last season showed ONE WHEEL, now they show TWO wheels close together)
Actual 17 SE RTX...look close(Two wheel spread out, 18 RTX is like this)

Awesome news Dan. I just found out today that my wife's new SW blue LT-X LE showed up at Port Yamaha.
I've got a road trip planned for next week to pick up the new SW along with a Vintage '86 Inviter:
It looks like the LE's are arriving about the same time as last season.
